Janelle for Model Number Tfx27fh. With custom dispenser I have a side by side gE refridg 26.7 cu ft. The freezer works great but the refridg side don't get cold, I put a house fan on back so the fridg can get cold it helps but it's not cold enough. What do I need and can I replace the part myself. When I press the reset button on the fridg, it goes through with it and at the end it says pf of which means the power I guess is not strong enough. That stays on too.
Answer Hello Janelle. It sounds like you may have a defrost problem with the unit. Check and see if there is any frost build up on the evaporator coils in the freezer. If so, you will need to test the defrost heater and the defrost thermostat. They should read closed for continuity when cold. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. I will include a link at the end to assist you how to use the multi-meter if needed. If both parts are good, you will need to replace the defrost timer. Once the problem is repaired, you will need to thaw out the ice on the coils before the unit will operate properly. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
